about

While in Mississippi the B&S found a lot of Evangelical radio stations who seemed to need an awful lot of money from you to help spread the word. Does preaching really need to be that expensive? Do the heads of the church really need those Cadillacs and that lovely big house?

Recorded by MMOB mobile unit at the Juke Joint Chapel in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Mike 'MossMan' Myers (vocals & guitars), Stevie Myers (bass), Mark Cole (vocals & harp), Eugene 'BJ' Stokes IV (drums). Mixed and mastered at MCLR, Gloucester.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Life sometimes can get you down
A little healin might turn you round
All you gotta do is congregate
Come on y'all put some money in the plate
You gotta tithe y'all, you gotta tithe y'all

Let's talk about the mighty dollar bill
You think I'll take you up that hill
I'm gonna try to tell you the truth
Not here to tell you what to do
You gotta tithe y'all, you gotta tithe y'all

Bless you for tuning in
Well it's time to atone for your sins
Dial 1-800-praisethelord
And get ready with your credit card
We're not here to be funny
But God's work costs lots of money
Start your path to Heaven today
Just pray and buy your way
Buy your way, buy your way
You gotta tithe y'all, you gotta tithe y'all

Dial and pledge a ten
For a personal amen
We could really do with twenty
'cause my Cadillac fuel tank's empty
Fifty will show the Lord
That you really want to get on board
Send your money today
Just pay and buy your way
Buy your way

If life is causing you pain
Jesus is the name of the game
Brothers and sisters are you biding time
Let's get together, abiding in the vine
You gotta abide in the vine, abide in the vine

Come on in leave your sin at the door
Come on in, repent, sin no more
Praise him, rise and shine, 400!
This ain't no five and dime
You gotta tithe y'all, you gotta tithe y'all
